Abstract

Abstract A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines, having a reciprocating pump piston and an annular slide displaceable on the pump piston and having a control bore which cooperates with a control recess on a pump piston that communicates with the pump work chamber via a conduit. Because of a crooked position of the control bore with respect to the piston axis, an ellipse-like opening cross section is created, which in cooperation with the oblique control edge opens a fast, large opening cross section, by way of which in cooperation with an equal pressure valve disposed in the injection line, the fuel can flow out quickly, and a reliable, fast closure of the injection valve is assured. A pressure holding valve is also provided which opens toward the work chamber.

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 231 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having at least one reciprocating pump piston (3) defining a pump work chamber (4) in a pump cylinder (2), said piston has at least one control recess (22) on a jacket face which communicates through an axial conduit (26) with the pump work chamber (4), an oblique control edge (23), (28) that extends at a predetermined angle with respect to an axis of the pump piston (3), an annular slide (15) that is adjustable on the pump piston (3) and has a control bore (20), that penetrates a wall of the annular slide, said control bore is openable in the course of the pump piston stroke by the oblique control edges (23), (28) of the control recess (22) and in so doing connects the pump work chamber (4) with a fuel-filled low-pressure chamber surrounding the annular slide (15), in order to control the end of a high-pressure supply, the control bore (20) is disposed angularly to the pump piston axis and pierces a radial plane at an angle with respect to the pump piston axis in the annular slide (15), and an axis of the control bore 20 is disposed such that an ellipse-like entry cross section at the inner wall (21) of the annular slide (15) is located substantially parallel to the oblique control edge (23), (28) of the control recess (22).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 231 words
A fuel injection pump for internal combustion engines having at least one reciprocating pump piston (3) defining a pump work chamber (4) in a pump cylinder (2), said piston has at least one control recess (22) on a jacket face which communicates through an axial conduit (26) with the pump work chamber (4), an oblique control edge (23), (28) that extends at a predetermined angle with respect to an axis of the pump piston (3), an annular slide (15) that is adjustable on the pump piston (3) and has a control bore (20), that penetrates a wall of the annular slide, said control bore is openable in the course of the pump piston stroke by the oblique control edges (23), (28) of the control recess (22) and in so doing connects the pump work chamber (4) with a fuel-filled low-pressure chamber surrounding the annular slide (15), in order to control the end of a high-pressure supply, the control bore (20) is disposed angularly to the pump piston axis and pierces a radial plane at an angle with respect to the pump piston axis in the annular slide (15), and an axis of the control bore 20 is disposed such that an ellipse-like entry cross section at the inner wall (21) of the annular slide (15) is located substantially parallel to the oblique control edge (23), (28) of the control recess (22).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 92 words
A fuel injection pump of claim 1, in which said pump piston (3) has a clockwise control groove, and the control bore (20) in the annular slide (15) is turned clockwise out of an axial center position, by from about 10° to about 30°, in a radial plane pierced vertically by the pump piston axis of the pump work chamber (4), and that the control bore (20), seen in the radial direction with respect to the pump piston axis forms an angle from about 10° to about 30° with the radial plane.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 117 words
A fuel injection pump of claim 1, in which the annular slide (15) is at least partly encompassed by an axially parallel-aligned wall which communicates via a lateral opening with a low-pressure fuel chamber; that two control recesses (22) on the pump piston (3) and two control bores (20) on the annular slide (15), which are associated with the control recesses (22), are disposed symmetrical with a plane passing through the pump piston axis and the opening, on both sides of the wall and opposite one another, and the outlet directions of the control bores (20) on the annular slide (15), in a directional component located in the radial plane, are aligned obliquely relative to the wall.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 117 words
A fuel injection pump of claim 2, in which the annular slide (15) is at least partly encompassed by an axially parallel-aligned wall which communicates via a lateral opening with a low-pressure fuel chamber; that two control recesses (22) on the pump piston (3) and two control bores (20) on the annular slide (15), which are associated with the control recesses (22), are disposed symmetrical with a plane passing through the pump piston axis and the opening, on both sides of the wall and opposite one another, and the outlet directions of the control bores (20) on the annular slide (15), in a directional component located in the radial plane, are aligned obliquely relative to the wall.
